Support the gutted English (3)
I believe the answer is:
tee
'support' is the definition.
(tee is a kind of support)
'the gutted english' is the wordplay.
'gutted' means to remove the middle letters (to gut something is to remove its insides).
'english' becomes 'E' (abbreviation).
'the' with its middle taken out is 'te'.
'te'+'e'='TEE'
(Other definitions for tee that I've seen before include "supporter on course" , "Golfer's starting point" , "support of leisure activity" , "A golfer hits from here" , "Part of course" .)
